Added a link to arXiv paper in the Remark
Nov 25, 2017 at 8:46 comment added Taras Banakh @YCor This is a bit long. I will add the proof of this fact to the update of the corresponding paper in arXiv.
Nov 24, 2017 at 18:19 comment added YCor Can you elaborate about your new remark (that there are $2^{\aleph_0}$ self-maps)?

edited the definition of the set $Y$
Nov 21, 2017 at 8:22 comment added Taras Banakh @YCor Thank for your comment. Indeed, the set $Y$ had wrong definition. Now it is fixed. Concerning the cardinality of the set of self-maps of the Golomb space I am sure that it is continuum (the number of branches of some recursively defined tree of partial finite functions) but the proof of this fact still escapes from me (I hope not for long time).

Nov 21, 2017 at 8:12 comment added YCor A smaller basis for the topology consists of the $a+b\mathbb{N}_0$ for $a,b$ coprime and $1\le a<b$ (i.e. I discard those with "holes" such as $3+2\mathbb{N}_0$). Using this basis makes life simpler and avoids an unnecessary argument involving finite fibers. (btw you probably mean $Y=(f(x)+b\mathbb{Z})\cap (\mathbb{N}\smallsetminus (f(x)+b\mathbb{N}_0))$)
Nov 21, 2017 at 8:00 comment added YCor This argument works for every $f:\mathbb{N}\to\mathbb{N}$ such that $n|f(n)$ for all $n$ and $b|f(n+b)-f(n)$ for all $n,b$. How many such maps are there?
